If the bus arrives on time, we _ at 5 PM.
Correct answer: A. Will leave
- A. Will leave
- B. Would leave
- C. Leave
- D. Are leaving
Explanation
The correct answer is 'will leave' because it correctly uses the future tense to indicate a future action based on the condition of the bus arriving on time. Option B 'would leave' is incorrect as it is more suitable for hypothetical situations. Option C 'leave' is incorrect as it lacks a future tense verb. Option D 'are leaving' is incorrect as it uses the present continuous tense, which is not appropriate for a future action.
